so for intrepid. do we want:
/etc/asound.conf containing:
pcm.pulse {
type pulse
}
ctl.pulse {
type pulse
}
and run
asoundconf set-pulseaudio
which sets ~/.asoundrc.asoundconf to
pcm.!default {
type pulse
}
ctl.!default {
type pulse
}
the first one allows access to the pulse device. the second sets it as
default per user, but changeable without having to jump up to superuser.
With this gdm sound still works as it is not using the pulse device that
isnt there. but regular sound works correctly once logged in
surely there should be no delay on doing the first of these actions as
it doesnt cause any problems. it adds an extra device, which can be
selected, but isnt used by default. the second can be considered later.
If the first is done, it at least allows non superusers to choose and
use the device
